Is it normal to think that religious people are less intelligent?

  • I don't think so. Religion is more than believing in stories about a man walking on water or a being who created the universe, Religion is about learning how to be a good person and giving reasons to be good to others.

    I think religious people who miss the core principle of their own religion and focus on the stories and the traditions rather than what they mean are pretty stupid, but only because most people are stupid.

    Also religious extremists who think their other people deserve to die for not conforming to their idea of goodness.

    But no, religious people are no more stupid than Athiests, it's completely possible to meet an Athiest just as venomous and counterproductive about what they believe as well.

This is why you are smug self serving morons because you truly do , no matter what noises you make in public,believe Atheists are not as 'good' as you. Cut and dry, 'dat is 'dat.

      • Just for the record, I'm an Athiest, I never claimed Religion had a Monopoly on being a good person. There are many Religious people that DO feel that way but also many that do not, and it does not do well to generalise.

    • I somewhat agree with this.
